Year 3

Week beginning 13th July

The last week is finally here Year 3! Can you believe it? It's not been quite the year we had planned for you all but we are so pleased with how hard you've all been working, both in school and at home and know that you will be ready for Year 4 come September. 

A big thank you to those of you who have brought in cards and gifts for both of us, they are so lovely and we wish we could say a proper goodbye before the summer holidays. We are really looking forward to spending a couple of days with you all in September again. 

In the meantime have a lovely Summer and we will see you in September!

Week beginning 6th July

Hi Year 3!

Bit of a wet week this week in contrast to last week when it was so sunny. We have spent a lot more time indoors in school but have tried to get outside in between the showers. It has been nice to see some of you at our extra Study Ladder sessions on Wednesday. Miss Taylor was very impressed with how hard those of you who came worked - well done to Fantasia who had the most people attend. Gondor it would be lovely to see some of you this week! 

This week's Weekly 10 is all themed around music so we hope you enjoy creating some noise!

Week beginning 29th June

Hi Year 3! 

Another week gone and what a scorcher it was! We hope you all enjoyed the sunshine safely. It was quite hot in school and we were desperate to find shade at playtime to keep us cool! Hopefully there won't be too much rain this week so we can get outside again. We're into our last 3 weeks of school now, don't forget to log into StudyLadder each day and visit the Book Swap on Thursday! 

Week beginning 22nd June 2020

Hi Year 3!
 

We hope you have been having a lovely week and have managed to dodge the rain showers of the past few days. We are glad the weather is still quite warm as it means you can spend lots of time outdoors. Well done to all of you still working hard on Study Ladder, remember to try and complete as much as you can by the end of each week, then give yourself a rest over the weekend!

Have a great week!

Hi Year 3, we hope you are enjoying your time at home and you have completed some of the activities that you took home.

Remember to read whenever you can! You can read in the garden, in bed, on the sofa, on the floor and at the table. You could even ring a relative and read to them!
